Microsoft has revealed a couple of small updates to Discord integration on Xbox, as the hugely-popular social platform continues to be deeper embedded into modern consoles.

These new features, which are currently exclusive to Insider s but should eventually be rolled out widely, allow players to see their Discord friends and channels directly from the console interface and jump into chat, as well as stream their gameplay or watch others’ streams through Discord directly from the Xbox console.

The announcement didn’t provide any indication of when these updates might be rolled out to the general public, but if you’re interested you can find out more about the Insider programme here. Below you’ll find the full descriptions of these additions as per the Xbox Wire blog:

Xbox Insiders – It’s Easier than Ever to Watch, Chat, and Play with Your Friends on Xbox and Discord

See your Discord friends and channels from your Xbox

It’s now easier to see when one of your Discord friends is playing, chatting, or streaming, and you can jump into voice chat with them or watch their stream – all on your Xbox console, without having to use the Discord app on PC or mobile. If your Xbox and Discord s are linked, you can opt-in to have your Discord friends included in your Friends list on the Xbox guide by re-linking your s. Once you relink your Xbox and Discord s, head to the Friends list of the Xbox guide. Your Discord friends will show up on the right side under “Happening now” whenever they are playing a game or chatting in Discord voice.

Watch Discord streams on your Xbox console

You can now watch anyone who is streaming directly on your Xbox console when you’re connected to a Discord call or in a voice channel! Are you having an epic moment you want to share? You can stream your own gameplay to your Discord friends too.
